where does someone go to learn? very interested as I've been working with cars ( not much mechanically) for about 5 years and love racing, and somewhere down the road want my own tuning shop and race ream for said shop. but as I was saying where does someone go to learn more in depth, is it schooling? or is it more of an online courses type of thing? appreciate any insight.
@@ZipFigler you don’t need any special schooling. Read internal combustion engine fundamentals by john b heywood. Get a shit box and learn how to tune it
@@iPixelFace 2nd opinion: not likely. This is my first video but I'm honestly disappointed. I have nothing but compliments for his content, presentation, and ability to break down complex processes...but this did nothing to explain the tuning process lmao. Title should have been "Engine management explained" and honestly anybody who didn't know any of these basics already should not be in charge of deciding whether they need a tune or not. I'm far from a pro at anything but I went from knowing squat about tuning, to unskillfully being able to reverse engineer ecu programming(the first step into tuning a stock ECU) in a matter of 2 months all because of a NATS failure which has nothing to do with tuning... And to prove how much of a pro I am not, last night I discovered the NATS failure was brought on by loose harness pins...I "learned" how to tune for nothing but even i can recognize this video is pointless for its intended purpose
Wow man, I just took an ECU tuning course that was about ~3+ hrs long and you summarized the majority of it very well in under 10 minutes. Really easy to follow information, and sure some of the terms used later on might throw people for a loop but you explained everything in a concise way while still getting the point across. Was a great way to establish the fundamentals as a starting point for getting into tuning!
Two easy questions…… Is it possible that the ECU programming cause the engine to start knocking ? Is it possible that the factory mapping could become corrupt or partially corrupt and cause engine knocking ? Thank you !
I'm not too knowledgeable on tuning yet but I must say this is one if not the best and most friendly, easy-to-follow video I've seen discussing the topics. Thank you for this vid/content, Instantly subbed!
Hey mate ! Love this kind of stuff. Trying to learn more about cars everyday with very little knowledge already. Thanks heaps ! keep up the great work.
Do you think you could make a video explaining the differences and benefits of twin turbo setups vs single turbo setups and vice versa? There's a lot of conflicting info out there, and so far your videos have been some of the most educational videos I've ever seen.
Companies will usually do one big turbo or two smaller turbos. Having one turbo is cheaper to manufacture and will usually suck in more air than two small turbos. The negative of a single big turbo is that it has lag (which is the time it takes for the turbines to spin fast enough to make boost). Twin turbos are smaller, but their smaller size lets the turbines get to that fast speed needed to suck in air for boost. The negatives that come with a twin turbo are more expensive manufacturing costs and less power at high RPM. The way companies fix this is they have a twin turbo setup that has different sized turbos, a small one for low RPM, and a big one for high RPM. I’m not super educated in how it works and I don’t want to spread misinformation, but that’s the general idea on single vs twin turbos.
@@balakay1538there are 2 types of twint turbo configuration. Pararell and compound. In pararell you split the motor in half. Lets imagine an i6 you would have a turbo for each 3 exhaust outlets. In compound you have a smaller and a bigger as you said. Hope this helps.
Manufacturers use them for different reasons depending on what they want. There is no one answere is right to it. Two is obviously able to do more than one for efficiency. Sure there could be 2 tiny ones compared to 1 big one. But 2 share the work. I know some manufacturers use ons for acceleration and 1 for top end speeds. There is various purposes for it. 😊
This is pure gold, simply explained basics, and this goes for all your content, feels like season one of an epic show with a lot of room to expand! Looking forward to your future posts!
I was looking for a long time on learning how to tune or at least some basic on how it works and you are one of the first person who explain tuning well enough to understand. Your channel is very underrated.
This is by far one of the best educational automotive channels on TH-cam, so congratulations on that, man! What is it that you do for a living or how did you get that vast knowledge about cars? Cheers!
I clicked on this thinking I'd learn something new and damn right I learnt something new! Very informative, short and to the point. Wish such stuff was taught in colleges.
Hey man your truly have earned me as a subscriber. You got the answers but without geeking out and going in to too much detail on one concept or mechanism. If you ask me you’re answering questions I have perfectly.
There is definitely nobody on this planet that could explain this in a better way this was clear and to the point best explanation yet!! You whole channel is very instructive and delivers just what one is looking for.... Much love all the way from SOUTH AFRICA!!
Wow, you truly opened my third eye when it comes to engine turning. Before, I thought that engine turning was a waste of money that would alter the OEM equilibrium of your engine and that, as a result, you would get ten additional hp, but your engine would blow up in 5k miles. Now I understand the purpose of engine tuning. It's basically an art of balancing all the parameters of an engine to reach the best performance, which doesn't necessarily mean blowing up your engine
Definitely subscribed after this vid. Super informational and you are very knowledgeable!! I'm currently a MechE student so seeing content like this gives me so much motivation to follow through with school and strive for my passions. Thank you so much!!!!
I have been interested in cars for around 5-6 years now and ive always tried to understand what tuning is, i havent left a video that i havent watched abt tuning but thanks to your video i finally undestood in a clear manner
I don't normally comment on videos, however, this video and the content was so well explained that i just had to comment. I also don't subscribe to anyone, however, this man has earned my subscription. Everything makes perfect sense now.
One of the best videos ive watched in my life !!!! Thank you funny thing is it just poped after a music video 😂😂 as a csr guy must say id like to give you my car to work on and take it to the limit
Brilliant. After ALL these years, I finally have a pretty firm grasp as to how a modern automobile is configured to run - and- how "run optimization" can me coded !!
This is good information. I’ve always wondered how an ECU works and how it properly reads data from input sensors. In Minecraft, I made a 4 cylinder engine with a CAN system that can check misfires, determine engine load and speed, check if the fuel pump I created is flowing properly and determine fuel trim, and more. It’ll throw respected OBD codes and will keep the check engine light on as long as the battery i created is fully charged
This is Controls of your vehicle boys. I worked on a GM vehicle, we have very limited access of the ICE and in the CAN bus we had like 6k signals. Modifying your ECU is very hard, and requires a lot of testing. Bear in mind that your ECU has so many other adjustments to compensate for all types of events in the road, so don't assume that just by tunning your ECU once will give great performance in every scenario. It may just work great for that afternoon 😁 and suck the rest of the week. My utter most respect for the guys who tuned ECU.
Buddy, I'm a recent project car owner and I just randomly looked up a video on tuning and watched this entire video. To the point, clear and informative. Lose the background music please though or reduce the volume. Cheers!
This video was my introduction to you. Following this, i just binge-watched all your other videos! PS : you've just rightfully earned yourself a new suscriber!
I have a BMW K1600 motorcycle and needs to be tuned. One thing you may mention in the end to be aware of EPA constrictions. In Europe they are tougher than US and thus imported motorcycles can be tuned to not only make them faster but just ride better. At around 65/85 I like to be a low poluter and before that and after that I bought this thing for FUN, if I want to. Making the tables, like you mentioned are very complex. The video is otherwise about a good as anyone can explain it. Thank you!!!
Awesome Video Man one of the best videos explaining how tuning works and what the Technician is trying to accomplish. Thanks dude you just earned a follow from me!
It's beyond my comprehension how an ECU receives signals, compares , adjusts, etc. in the miniscule time frame that all this happens. Actually the fact that an engine runs at 8000 rpm and does so with relative ease (appears such) considering intake-compression-power-exhaust happening multiple times per second is another thing that blows my mind. I just have to accept it, because IT IS happening!!
it definitely is crazy to think about. there’s hundreds of things that have to be working on an engine and it has to have perfect timing every single second. blows my mind
It basically comes down to the clock speed of the CPU (central processing unit) inside the ECU. Microprocessors are a very fascinating topic and a whole 'nother universe / rabbit hole to delve into. The most advanced CPUs in consumer electronics are your PC/Laptop and smartphone. Just understanding how many calculations it takes to play and display this video is fascinating. This video is 1920x1080 pixels updating at 30 frames per second. That is 2,073,600 pixels each frame or 62,208,000 pixel updates per second. Each pixel has 3 values that range from 0-255 (Red, Green, Blue) so basically your graphics driver is calculating 186 million values EACH SECOND to display this video... and this is light work for a modern GPU! If you can't tell, I find computer engineering just as marvelous as automotive! :)
I hope this is something I can learn, as its totally worth turning your own car. When I build a custom PC, I set up all the software. Why not a car, there has to be some genius out there able to simplify the process as a small beginning. Open source is where community would shine and avoid regulations.
Love your channel and all of your videos, I’d suggest if you’re going to keep the background music I’d lower it a bit, but I’d also consider cutting it and only using it during certain parts
Great video the best one I've seen for a breakdown on the basics, I've been trying to tune a 2015 XP 1000 with a 1065 big bore kit with air extreme and stage 6 trinity full exhaust with only a dynojet pv3 and power core software. The shop that did the 1065 upgrade sent the tune to go with it but after flashing the ECU with it, the machine won't run and backfires when idling. I'm in the process of making a custom tune for it because puting it on a Dyno is not possible in my area and was told by dynojet any tune I try from any website won't do the machine justice because of all the extreme modifications or upgrades my options were Dyno it or create a custom tune. So I got creative and this video answered a few questions I couldn't get answers to, so thank you
Thank you! I've been looking for information on this for a while. I knew there was a rabbit hole around here somewhere but all I was getting from general searches was bolt on a turbo and put in a cold air intake 🤣
Hey! I learned my trade working on those old "Boomer" cars. Mostly swapped the carbs out for Holleys and threw on a MSI system. Made the leadfoots happy. Learned how to remap the distributors but never put it into practice. Rejetting and remapping is so time consuming.
Us boomers with numbers matching old muscle cars like optimized tuning too but obviously can't be ditching our carbs & distributors for ECM systems. There is money to made if a tuner was open to learning old school rejetting and recurving. Takes more time to do so, but when charging buy the hour, so what.
The ecu auto tune thing is accurate of all card except the stone age ecu on a 04 Subaru wrx and many others... Acura however is amazing at self tuning and adjusting values. I learned tuning on my own and so far I've surpassed everyones expectations on power, efficiency, even mpg. On a almost stock wrx I had about 280awhp and 35mpg and lower emissions than stock.
Great video man, Im in the process of about to tune my BMW to stage 1. Just got my cold air intake, charge & boost pipe, aluminum coolant flange, and brass bleeder screw. Valvetronic exhaust system with a VRSF intercooler & race downpipe! I can technically go straight into stage 2 with the part mods but going to see how stage 1 feels first this video really breaks down the process and concept of tuning and gave a more clear understanding of whats happening to my ECU. I plan on using bootmod3. 😃
From an educator, this is the absolute best and most concise fundamental explanation for students that ask this question all the time. Well done!!!!
This means a lot, thank you!

Modifying your ECU is very hard, and requires a lot of testing.
Bear in mind that your ECU has so many other adjustments to compensate for all types of events in the road, so don't assume that just by tunning your ECU once will give great performance in every scenario.
